α-Ni(OH)2 is an ideal candidate material for a supercapacitor except for its low conductivity and poor stability. In this work, BO2–-intercalated α-NixCo(1–x)(OH)2 is synthesized by a hydrothermal method at a low cost. The Co dopant can decrease the charge-transfer resistance and enhance the cyclic stability. The special unsaturated electronic state of BO2– enhances the bonding with metal ions and attracts water molecules. Thus, the BO2– ions support the hydroxide layers as pillars and create efficient paths for proton transportation, optimizing the utilization of α-Ni(OH)2. The three-dimensional (3D) flowerlike morphology supplies an enormous number of active sites, and r-GO is added to improve the conductivity. As a result, the modified α-Ni(OH)2 exhibits the specific capacitance of 2179, 1592, and 1423 F·g–1 at 1, 20, and 40 A·g–1, respectively, showing improved rate performance. Matching with the commercial activated carbon (AC) as an anode, the asymmetric capacitor delivers an energy density of 40.66 W·h·kg–1 when its power density is 187.06 W·kg–1. Meanwhile, it retains 81.5% capacitance of the initial cycle at 5 A·g–1 after 3000 cycles. With conductivity enhanced and structure stabilized, the modified α-Ni(OH)2 confronts broader fields of application.

Hierarchical macro-mesoporous Ni(OH)2 were prepared by hydrothermal treatment of Ni(NO3)2 with dicyandiamide. This Ni(OH)2 nanostructure can be transformed to mesoporous NiO via calcination at 300°C. The structure, morphology and textural properties of the as-synthesized Ni(OH)2 and NiO were characterized. The electrochemical property and electrochemical sensing performance toward glucose detection were investigated. Owing to the unique macro-mesoporous structure, the Ni(OH)2 nanostructure could provide amperometric sensing of glucose with wide linear range (0.01–8.3 mM), high sensitivity of 243 μA mM cm−2 and low detection limit of 1 μM. Moreover, this glucose sensor also exhibited excellent stability, good selectivity and reproducibility.

Hydroxylated carbon quantum dots (OH-CQDs) modified g-C 3 N 4 hollow microspheres were prepared using a supramolecular precursor self-assembly method. The incorporation of OH-CQDs into the precursor resulted in the formation of a hollow flower-like microsphere structure composed of g-C 3 N 4 nanoflakes in the final samples, which exhibited a morphology that was roughly inherited from that of the supramolecular precursor. The incorporation of an optimal quantity of OH-CQDs did not result in a deterioration of the g-C 3 N 4 product morphology; rather, it led to an enhancement in its microsphere structure. The modified nanostructure of g-C 3 N 4 resulted in a significant increase in reaction sites and promoted the adsorption of organic dye molecules on the surface of the g-C 3 N 4 photocatalyst during degradation reactions. Furthermore, despite the reduction in carrier concentration of g-C 3 N 4 resulting from the decoration with OH-CQDs, the impedance was significantly diminished and the photocurrent density was also markedly improved. It can thus be concluded that the decoration of OH-CQDs has significantly enhanced the mobility of g-C 3 N 4 , thereby contributing to the improvement of the photocatalytic performance of the g-C 3 N 4 photocatalyst.

Deep hydrogenation of dicyclopentadiene resin (DCPD resin) plays an important role in enhancing its performance and broadening its applications. However, designing suitable catalysts for promoting DCPD resin deep hydrogenation remains a challenge due to the high steric hindrance and abundant unsaturated bonds in DCPD resin, requiring strong binding to C=C double bonds. We herein propose a strategy for simultaneously constructing highly-dispersed Ni particles for hydrogen dissociation and interfacial Ni 0 /Ni(OH) + sites for C=C adsorption by controlled reduction of Ni phyllosilicate (Ni PS). The catalyst, after reduction at 400 °C, demonstrated balanced ratio between Ni 0 and interfacial Ni 0 /Ni(OH) + sites, and achieved a hydrogenation degree of 99.8% (TOF: 68.8 h −1 ) while maintaining 99.3% efficiency after seven consecutive cycles. Through in-situ DRIFTS analysis and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, it is confirmed that the introduction of Ni 0 /Ni(OH) + interfacial sites results in superior activity compared to pure Ni 0 or unreduced PS due to optimized charge transfer and electronic configuration. This work not only establishes a simple and environmentally-friendly approach to design efficient catalysts for polymer hydrogenation, but also provides insights into the mechanism of unsaturated bond hydrogenation through the synergistic effects of Ni 0 and Ni 0 /Ni(OH) + interfacial sites.

The desorption process of CO2 absorbed by the hot-potash-alkali method was studied in this paper. In a traditional hot-potash-alkali process, the temperatures of KHCO3 aqueous solutions are high, moisture vaporization is serious, and energy consumption is high. We proposed that membrane desorption can be used instead of heating desorption and conducted relevant research. PDMS-PTFE-PVDF/PET was used as a composite membrane. The water evaporation considerably declined, and the decomposition conversion rate reduced to 25.5% as the equilibrium liquid-phase concentration decreased. Results show that the PDMS-PTFE-PVDF/PET composite membrane loaded with 1 wt % TiO(OH)2 nanoparticles can be used for membrane desorption, while the decomposition conversion rate of the KHCO3 aqueous solution decreased by only 4.2% after 10 cycles, and the effect was considerably improved. The comprehensive capture energy consumption was about 65% lower than that of the absorption-heating desorption process on account of the positive effect of TiO(OH)2 nanoparticles. Brief calculation, which is based on CO2 concentration tested by a gas analyzer and the linear fitting of the Arrhenius equation, demonstrates that the reaction activation energy can be reduced (Supporting Information).

Nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals are crucial components in all-solid-state lasers because they expand the wavelengths of existing laser sources through laser frequency conversion. In this work, Ag2[TeO2(OH)4] was identified in tellurates using the first-principles high-throughput screening pipeline for NLO materials (FHSP-NLO). The material was successfully produced via mild aqueous solution synthesis conditions, and a single crystal of 8 × 4 × 4 mm3 in size was obtained. Ag2[TeO2(OH)4] is one of the few materials that contains the [TeO2(OH)4]2− anionic group and belongs to the non-centrosymmetric (NCS) space group. Ag2[TeO2(OH)4] exhibited balanced comprehensive performances, including a large second harmonic generation (SHG) response of about 0.84 × AgGaS2 (AGS), moderate band gap (2.73 eV) and large birefringence (0.106@1064 nm). First-principles studies revealed that the dominant units that contribute to the crystal's linear and nonlinear optical properties are Ag atoms and TeO2(OH)4 groups.

Battery-type electrode materials such as Ni(OH)2 applied in Faraday supercapacitors could present a low cycling stability due to the microstructure damage of materials, originating from their cyclic volume swelling and shrinking. It is well established that the structural stability of materials is crucial for their cycling stability. However, the lack of knowledge about the structural relevance of materials to their cycling stability somehow results in a chaotic understanding on the material design. In this study, we try to reveal the structural relevance by comparing an orderly built nanostructure with a randomly packed nanostructure using Ni(OH)2 as the target material. It is found that the branched nanosheet-interlaced nanostructure of Ni(OH)2 has its self-supportive function in favor of its structural stability, thus promoting its cycling stability. Also, the orderly nanostructured Ni(OH)2 presents high electrochemical performance due to the reduced interfacial charge-transfer resistance and Warburg resistance.

Active metal hydrolysis is favored for safety and environmental friendliness in the field of hydrogen generation. In practice, however, dense oxide/hydroxide films form instantaneously on the metal surface; these passivating layers act as electronic insulators that severely curtail charge transfer and, consequently, suppress hydrogen evolution. Herein, a novel heterostructure of NiO/Ni(OH)2 was designed to enhance the electron transfer rate in the magnesium powder hydrolysis system, achieving rapid hydrogen production. Surprisingly, Mg-2 wt % NiO/Ni(OH)2 achieved a near 100% conversion rate, producing 880.2 mL g–1 of H2 in only 20 s at 30 °C. Its maximum hydrogen generation rate (mHGR) surpassed that of pure magnesium by 35-fold, and such hydrolysis performance is superior to all the reported results of catalyzed-Mg systems so far. Theoretical studies confirmed that the space charge region in NiO/Ni(OH)2 affects the electronic structure; thus, the correspondingly generated built-in electric field accelerated the hydrolysis of magnesium and greatly facilitated the electron transfer of the system. This work provides a strategy for designing nickel-based oxides/hydroxides catalysts for light metal hydrolysis and facilitates the understanding of the catalytic mechanism in multiphase catalytic systems.

To address the challenge of insufficient long-term protective performance in waterborne epoxy coatings (WEP) due to curing defects, this study successfully synthesized a ternary nanocomposite filler, BTA@OH-BN/PANI (BTP), through a chemical oxidation polymerization process. Hydroxylated hexagonal boron nitride (OH-BN) was employed as a functional scaffold, onto which the corrosion inhibitor benzotriazole (BTA) was loaded via a solution impregnation method. Camphorsulfonic acid-doped polyaniline (CSA-PANI) was then coated onto the surface using in situ polymerization. FT-IR, XPS, and FE-SEM characterization confirmed strong interfacial coupling between the components and the successful formation of the core-shell structure. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) results revealed that the BTP filler significantly improves coating performance through a multidimensional synergistic effect, including physical shielding, active repair, and interfacial passivation. At the scratch defect site, due to the responsive release of BTA and the passivation induced by PANI, the charge transfer resistance ( R ct ) increased from an initial value of 13,200 Ω·cm 2 to 25,600 Ω·cm 2 within 24 h, demonstrating significant active impedance recovery. After a 90-day immersion in a 3.5% NaCl solution, the BTP-WEP substrate retained its bright metallic lustre. This study provides a solid theoretical and experimental foundation for the development of high-performance, synergistic active, and environmentally friendly marine anti-corrosion coatings.

Recovering valuable organic compounds from high-salinity organic wastewater is essential for sustainable chemical manufacturing. However, conventional polymeric membranes suffer from insufficient organic/inorganic selectivity, poor solvent resistance, and severe membrane fouling during practical applications. Herein, we developed a hydroxylated carbon nanotube (CNT-OH)-modulated graphene oxide (GO) membrane to address these challenges. By precisely regulating the inner diameter and hydroxyl content of CNT-OH, rapid transport channels for water molecules and hydrated ions were constructed, which simultaneously suppressed interlayer swelling and enhanced the rejection of organic compounds. The optimized GO/single-walled hydroxylated carbon nanotubes (SWCNT-OH) membrane achieved water permeability of 28.7 l m −2 h −1 bar −1 and separation factor above 15 for negatively charged dyes, antibiotics, and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) relative to inorganic salts (NaCl), outperforming commercial nanofiltration (NF) membranes by one order of magnitude. During one-month continuous treatment of real erythromycin (ERY) fermentation broth, the membrane showed only a 7.1% flux decline and maintained 99.9% ERY rejection. Compared with conventional ultrafiltration-nanofiltration (UF-NF) processes, the system reduced operating costs by 66.4% and CO 2 emissions by 76.8%, demonstrating pronounced economic and environmental advantages. Overall, the system demonstrates outstanding application potential, strong scalability and engineering feasibility.
